Longshot Island: Fallen Leaves

This is Vol. 2 of the Longshot Island magazine publication released in 2017. Stories by Joanie Chevalier, Julia Proud, Manuel Royal, Jacqueline Scifres, L.S. Hicks and Barry GJ Quinn.
Who are the fallen leaves? They are angels and they are monsters. They are friends, wives, mothers, and lovers. They are rainbows and falling stars. They are all around us. They are within us.
Some are bitter and cold and they crush in your hands on a cold winter day. Some are warm and colorful and invite you into their homes. But none last forever.
The stories in this issue are about our choices. Who will our friends be? What changes will we go through? What might we destroy, or what might destroy us? All stories. All choices. All leaves.
As a publisher, it occurred to me that writers experiment with storytelling. They try different voices, different styles, different characters, seeing what works best for them on paper. And so it is with life, a constant experiment. We all are the fallen leaves. In the end, you make your own story. Don't let the story make you. Welcome to Fallen Leaves.
